Self-Feeders Save Hay and Considerable Labor for Sheep
Colorado Experiment Station tests show self feeders reduce labor and hay waste in lamb feeding. Lambs fed whole hay in self feeders gained similarly to rack-fed lambs, with hay use dropping by about 40 pounds per 100 pounds gain. Savings amounted to roughly 42 cents per 100 pounds of gain, potentially paying for the feeder in two years. Researchers expect further gains from improved self feeder designs to cut waste further.
